Did Mary Make The Dance Club Play Chart?

**luke** · 11-10-2015, 06:50 PM

Won't track then go up on the dance sales chart if people buy it?

**midnightman** · 11-10-2015, 06:52 PM

I'd imagine you have to buy downloads and CDs for a dance track to move up. But the understanding I got from the dance chart is usually if a DJ was spinning a song in various number of clubs... since the industry has changed from its original foundation, however, it's hard to detect how a song on a chart moves up... the miracle is that on the dance chart, they don't care how old you are, if you have a great dance joint behind you, they'll promote you in the dance clubs.

**luke** · 11-13-2015, 01:58 PM

It is not "House Music" per se , although one of the mixes come close.

Mary's got a Top 40 Dance Hit! LOL! They have to do a write-up from the angle of what artists that were on the charts in 1964, are on them again today? LOL!

**luke** · 11-13-2015, 03:13 PM

You know that's right. I think Mary has surpassed Miss Turner!

Yeah I think so because Tina was in her fifties or late forties when she made a recording comeback in 1983-84.

**floyjoy678** · 11-13-2015, 04:09 PM

This is so awesome, I'm very happy for her! Go Mary!

**REDHOT** · 11-13-2015, 06:16 PM

I say go MARY WILSON,this has been a good year for her,i hope to see her in more magazine's too,i'm sure the haters are not happy lol

Now you know there are going to be follow up recordings after this one. I think this is her first Top 40 hit since "I'm Gonna Let My Heart Do the Walking" back in 1976. I am wondering if they have a mix targeted for the Hot 100?

**midnightman** · 11-13-2015, 07:10 PM

Yeah that makes her one of the oldest to chart with a top 40 Billboard song entry at 71!

**luke** · 11-13-2015, 07:33 PM

Who would've thought. Mary's movin in on Burl Ives!!

**marv2** · 11-13-2015, 07:41 PM

Maybe we can consider her opening the doors for more seniors to hit the charts!

Mary's hit, along with the Smokey Robinson Tribute has made this really Movember! LOL!!!

**luke** · 11-13-2015, 09:02 PM

Lol. And don't Tina pretty much retire around 70?

**marv2** · 11-13-2015, 10:01 PM

Yep, I think you are right. I've heard Mary called the hardest working woman in show biz. The way she globe trots, I agree.

Mary's gonna have to record some follow ups to break the record in 2026. Yoko Ono landed a number one on dance club play last year at age 81...

**marv2** · 11-13-2015, 11:17 PM

Motor City Works had better get her "Clarity" album out there.

**luke** · 11-14-2015, 12:30 AM

glen..you are so right. Forgot about Yoko! Gonna be hard to top that! And Marv maybe the music company now will buy it from Motor City Works and add Movin On.

That would not be a bad idea. Evidently the folks at Sweet Feet Music know how to market their music and get it out there. Something some of the other companies Mary has recorded for could not do.

Billboard posts their charts online before the magazine hits newsstands, for obvious reasons. To access the full chart, one must subscribe to Billboard Magazine and/or have an online subscription.

Also, the dance chart is a little different. The Club Dance Songs chart [[which Mary is now on), is the ONLY chart remaining in the magazine that is complied from actual playlists submitted by a select number of Billboard reporting DJs. All other charts are monitored digitally [[through SoundScan and Nielsen). Therefore, charts are compiled for the dance chart a week prior to street date, and sent to record labels/promoters/artists a week before anyone else has access.

I can assure you, any updates that are posted on Mary's Facbook page in regards to chart position are current and accurate. For the week of 11/28/2015 Sweet Feet Music & Mary Wilson move up to #37 [[with a bullet).

Listening to my favorite mix here of "Time to Move On", you know what I noticed? Mary snatched a portion of the Supremes version '"Love Train" where she goes " We got move on it, play on it, groove on it, stay on it"........ Interesting.

Ms Wilson could break that record of number of years appearing on the charts!

**Mark Desjardines** · 11-23-2015, 10:49 AM

A good voice, top notch production and funky beat are always a winning combination. Europeans have been hip to this musical fact for decades and support artists in tune with current trends. Mary Wilson also has a great stage presence as an entertainer, honed from decades of experience. That is why she is cherished in Europe. It is great to see her have a hit in North America where ageism rears its ugly head. Mary has never given in to defeat on that front, and I along with many others on this forum are cheering her on. Wouldn't it be uber cool if she and Diana did a "partners" dance concept one off recording just to say "Honey, we is STILL terrific!"

That would be a gay/bi boy's dream come true!
